How many Super Delegate slots did you get?
A few, but I gave them to my friends. That's how influence works.

But I’m pretty sure superdelegates have never swung an election including 2016. Hillary had the most votes. By a large margin.
I wish the 2016 Republicans had super delegates.
Its not a real insurance policy as was shown in 2008I'm pretty sure they haven't either. But in 2016 Hillary won by roughly 1000 delegates. There were 712 super delegates, 572 of whom voted for Hillary. That's a pretty nice insurance policy to have going in, all courtesy of the DNC.

there really ins't a good defense of the superdelegate system or the DNC's debate/campaign strategy in 2016
That is true. It is also true that it didn't impact who the actual winner was. If Bernie had been a better candidate ("better" being defined as one who, you know, more people voted for) he would have won the primary.
So, by that logic Donald Trump was the better presidential candidate, huh.
Except that fewer people voted for him than the other candidate.
Made my first ever political contribution to Pets's campaign. Really looking forward to his ability to restore sanity to American politics.
No. She’s planning a 3rd party run.
